When you are on probation for any jurisdiction there is always a fee called Cost of Supervision, which you can have a judge waive if you're a college student or disabled. COS's can also be worked off by means of community service hours as can the court costs.

Can you go to jail for a debt that is over 10 yrs old?

Yes, it is certainly possible. Typically it won't occur though. Unless there is criminal activity involved, such as fraud, courts don't sentence people to jail on a civil debt. For example a criminal offender is granted probation and is ordered by the Court to pay restitution to the victim. The offender stops reporting to his probation officer and does not pay the restitution as ordered so a warrant gets issued. The warrant will not go away until the offender is arrested even after ten years.

Will you go to jail for not paying your court cost and fines in little rock while on probation?

If a condition of your probation is that you pay your fines - yes. You are in violation of probation (VOP) and can suffer the consequences. Probation s NOT a 'get out of jail free' card!Addendum:It is not uncommon, though, for parolees and probationers to not have completely paid their restitution. In this event, the remaining amount is often sent to third party collections, at which point legal (civil) action can be taken.
